chris knight – i’m william callahan lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’m william callahan
i used to be a ramblin’ man
i left home at seventeen
hopped a freight to birmingham
started poor as kentucky coal
lined my pockets with denver gold
i’ve been cold as alaska snow
searching for the sun

[chorus 1]
it was a long time ago
i had a restless soul
trains come and whistles blow
i let ’em roll

[verse 2]
this is my wife, angeline
she used to be a cajun queen
i took her from the mayor’s son
bourbon street, new orleans
she had a will no man could tame
she took her chances when they came
left with me on a midnight train
searching for the sun

[chorus 2]
it was a long time ago
she had a restless soul
trains come and whistles blow
she let ’em roll

[verse 3]
trains roll, blowing steam
through an old man and old woman’s dreams
we look in each other’s eyes
there ain’t a lot that we ain’t seen
we’d be out there running tonight
but we’ve run the race and fought the fight
we think we did alright

[chorus 3]
it was a long time ago
we had a restless soul
trains come and whistles blow
we let ’em roll
